Ace, please let this family know that Dallas and I will be praying for the safe return of their loved one. We will also pray for the family. Please keep us all posted on the search. Thank you for bringing this to our attention here on the board, I am sure other Bus Nuts will be praying also. Cat

We haven't heard anymore other than the guy left work friday and he had a rental car because his was in the shop for service. He was supposed to be stopping by a friends house on the way home and never did. he also was supposed to be coaching a (I believe kids soccer or football) team on Saturday and he never showed up. Police say that usually a person will most definitely show to work on monday (can't figure that one out) but henever showed. He's a diabetic on insulin, his credit and debit cards have NO transactions on them since his disapearance and he's not in ANY hoispital or jail in Florida. I think yesterday, they were checking all the local soup kitchens. He may be disoriented from his illness and just doesn't know where to go. Police also say that there have been no wrecks involving the rental car and his home has not been invaded. He just fell of the face of the earth! Very strange indeed!

Jim Thanks for asking! I have been at a bus rally this weekend and won't know any more until tomorrow when Susan gets back to work. She hasn't received any news while she was away and that could be a good thing! The last thing she heard was that the man had another credit card that none of his family knew about. the police found this out from a credit report. That credit card was found to be used at a Motel on the Saturday after his dissapearance in close by Ocala Florida. Problem is it was only reported to the credit company AFTER he checked out when the card was actually used. At that time they didn't know if it was himor someone else and at that time it was still being investigated! Also the car that was used at the time of registration at the motel is being investigated. Disney, the place where he worked, has terminated him. Don't know the whole story on that other than they don't play games! His personal car that was in the shop is still in the shop and the rental car that he had is now considered stolen!

If this guy is just running, due to cold feet, he's in some deep stuff!

Ace, whether he has been hurt, killed, or is running for some reason, he and his family still deserve our prayers. Please ask Susan to let the family know we are still praying for him and for them!!! Cat

From what I gather, and that's 3rd or 4th handed, is that a body has not been found yet and the detectives working the case are not letting thefamily know if they are on to anything or not because according to them, IF the cops tell the family anything at all, then the family tries to get more involved and they say that's not good! The family thinks that the cops are ON to something with some promising leads but they are not sure. The cops have asked the daughter that is college age to send him an email in hopes he will answer it. They have not said whether or not he is still using his email or not but they are hoping he is and will answer.

Right now, that's all I/we know!

The family which is the daughter and sister (the one that works with Susan) is all there is that I know of!
